Thanks for pointing out the timer in the upper right hand corner. Just seems to be a poor choice of editing. Probably nothing, but one wonders how they wrestled her out of the car.

I do get that, but..... Had they not had bodycams those law enforcement officers lives would have been destroyed. Even if their department supported them, even if it went to court and they were found not guilty their lives would have been ruined. This wasn't some simple little lie, it was a deliberate attempt to get back at the officers who were merely trying to do their job with little thought given to the consequences of that revenge.

Yes, but for the purposes of this conversation, statistically uncommon and basically unimportant are similar enough.

At least the Dad has his head on straight. Probably dismayed at the feminist garbage his daughter is learning that has undone years of parenting and made her daughter act like common trash in the false belief she's a liberated and empowered woman.
The free inhabitant is comedy gold. I haven't seen it in awhile.

Sounds like another version of the sovereign citizen argument.

Body cams protect whoever is in the right, as long as they are consistently and transparently used (aka they should be kept on and the public should have access by default, not just released by the police when favorable to them).

Assault and false rape allegations aren't stupid mistakes that teenagers make.
So, no second chances ever? I never said she shouldn't get punished. I just don't think this should ruin her life forever.

Again, I never said she should not get punished. I was just responding to the post saying she should never get a job in her life. She's a teenager, and she didn't murder anyone. Even murderers get second chances after doing their time.

But I do agree her allegations could have ruined those officers' lives, though I'm guessing they would have still been able to get future employment.

No, it shouldn't. That said, the career and criminal justice damage that she would have inflicted on the officer in the absence of the video would be fair and proportionate.

I bet 100.00 this girl marched wearing a pink pu $$y hat....
The video needs to be the property of a third party.
